He had spoken aloud so little lately. A man came, an Englishman in a high offensively well-fitting waistcoat, and stood before the cage. Mr. Wrenn slunk away, robbed of his new friend, the tiger, the forlornest person in all London, kicking at pebbles in the path.
Mary presented an entirely different aspect when she appeared, dressed in her well-fitting garments; and although her face and hands were sunburned, and her manners were embarrassed, we did not fail to compliment her on her beauty, and to congratulate her on her near approaching nuptials. "Let me speak with you for a moment," she said, turning to Fred just before the knot was tied.
And he knew everybody, young and old, at doorways, in the fields or gardens, and had for every one a hail and a greeting. How he enjoyed it all, and his self-consciousness added to his pleasure, as he swung along in his well-fitting city clothes, broad-shouldered and erect it is astonishing how much a tailor can do for a man who responds to his efforts.
Try to turn your thoughts away from your more important affairs long enough to notice the pretty morning-wrapper or the well-fitting evening-dress which has cost her some thought for your sake; do not let a change in the furniture or a new ornament in the parlor go unnoticed till the bill comes in.
For there, awaiting him, stood Lieutenant Tibbetts in the glory of his raiment helmet sparkling white, steel hilt of sword a-glitter, khaki uniform, spotless and well-fitting. "Everything is all right, sir," said Bones, saluting, and Hamilton thought he detected a gruffer and more robust note in the tone. "Mail-boat's just in, sir," Bones went on with unusual fierceness.

Paul reappeared, trim in leathern cap, well-fitting Norfolk jacket and shining puttees. "Never know he only had on an undershirt," thought Bean, struck by this swiftly devised effect of correct dressing.
You can have no idea of the effect of that aria with instruments; you may not think so when you see it, but it ought to be sung by a Madlle. Weber! Pray, give it to no one, for that would be most unfair, as it was written solely for her, and fits her like a well-fitting glove. Kaisersheim, Dec. 18, 1778. I ARRIVED here safely on Sunday the 13th, God be praised!
They were evidently the dandies of the population. The women appeared in coloured petticoats, with a well-fitting bodice and a red cape. Some wore handkerchiefs instead of the funnel cap, and others mantillas and black hoods, by which the whole face and figure can be concealed.
Yet she was almost an object of envy to all the young girls of the neighborhood, and no wonder; for she was an attractive sight to all eyes, with her neat, well-fitting clothes, that always looked new and fresh, and her air of strength and activity.
Not the usual Lawford, in rough fisherman's clothing or boating flannels or even in the chauffeur's uniform Louise supposed he sometimes wore. But in the neat, well-fitting clothing of what the habit-advertising pages of the magazines term the "up to date young man." His sartorial appearance outclassed that of any longshoreman she had ever imagined.
